Before I type my review I realize that it is highly possible that some people may be contemplating purchasing this book, but wondering if they can find a compiler to use with this book on modern Windows Vista/Windows 7 computers. The answer is yes there are many FREE compilers my personal favorite is listed at the end of this review.If you use Linux you will most probably already have the gcc compiler installed on your system!C is my favorited programming language. C came before C++ and in my opinion gets less attention these days than it should! I also know some C++ and BASIC(QBASIC, yabasic, and Liberty BASIC)-I don't recomend learning basic these days. I use C and sometimes C++ on both Windows and Linux(Ubuntu) systems and in the past have used Red Hat and Mandrake Linux with C++.This is a great book for learning C if you have little or no programming experience, and even if you have some experience with another programming language. I have never read the "C for Dummies" by the same author, but if you have any trouble following this book the other is supposed to be slower paced and explain things in a more understandable way.The author does an amazing job at balancing hummor and information. I hope this author, the author of the first for Dummies book, publishes some more C books and hopefully a couple books on Intel and AMD assemly.If you know how to use a computer and maybe have programmed a little in C++ or another language this book, "C All-In-One Desk Reference" will probably be easy for you to follow.In my opinion this is a great book and any college student about to take C or anyone interested in learning programming will probably find this book extreamly helpful.A FEW NOTES: (If you are new to C you can skip these two notes and goto the HELP and then the RECOMENDED IDE and COMPILER NOTE BELLOW!1. fflush and fpurge are not to be used to clear the input stream in the context mentioned in the book. The authors website offers a better solution in his FAQ page.2. gets is an EXTREAMLY DANGEROUS INSECURE function. It is ok when you are learning C, but for proffessional code it needs to be replaced by a more secure function. The authors website offers a fix for this problem the fgets function.fgets sets a limit on the number of characters it can read in and is thus not dangerous. You can write a simple find and replace algorythm to remove the automatically inserted newline character.HELP!If you type a program exactly as it is written in the book and it wont compile goto the authors website listed in the book and click on errata it could be a typo. There are a few of these typos, but they are all very well documented on the authors website. I went through the errors on the authors page and marked them down in my two coppies of this book. They are not major errors only small typos.RECOMENDED IDE and COMPILER for Windows Vista/Windows 7:My favorited IDE and Compiler for the Windows Vista and Windows 7 platform is Code::Blocks with the included MinGW compiler.I highly recomend this FREE IDE/Compiler bundle. This package works with C and also with C++.For beginners, I believe this package is perfect, after downloading the approximately 70 MB file that includes both CodeBlocks and MinGW you can install it simply like installing any oter applications.TO DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL CODE::BLOCKS:1. Go to the Codeblocks website and click downloads, then click binaries, and finally select Windows.2. There should be two downloads a smaller one and a larger one. The larger one approximately 70 MB is the one that contains the compiler! So if you don't already have a compiler download this package.3. Install by just following the directions.4. Then you are readdy to go!; ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A complex subject made readable *by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2022* I had learned a little C because I needed it for a project. I'd need to do something and then research how to do it. It was like learning math starting in 8th grade. This book starts at the beginning and walks through the concepts in a very readable and informative manner. Finally I'm feeling like I actually understand it!Kudos! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A+ for content!! F for Amazon.com *by B***M on Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2013* A+:I am learning and enjoying myself at the same time. This book is written well. I don't know if it is something that I appreciate because I am older but it is laid out in a logical order. Small bites are much better when presented this way.############################################################################// Now for the F. Amazon kindle is unkind to the format... and my eyes!!. Here is why:############################################################################1. The "type this in your editor" code used to have a slightly shaded background to distinguish itself from theory and other information. So you knew THIS STUFF IS WHAT DOES IN YOUR EDITOR and the other parts are explaining why.// ----> NOT ANYMORE!! <-------- and its sad.2. All the fonts are the SAME in my kindle dx. So trying to tell where code begins and ends is more difficult.** I had to go to google play and buy this book again to have the PDF version. The fonts are much better this way. But in the revised version, the shaded background behind the code is also gone. Maybe I was too hard on Amazon. But the font problem is at least an Amazon thing!!!In summery, I bought this book two times. Once through Amazon and once on google play. It is worth it. I am not angry because I dont mind supporting good people and good work. Just wish the code was easier to read with shaded background behind it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/127928415-c-all-in-one-desk-reference-for-dummies-1st-edition](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/127928415-c-all-in-one-desk-reference-for-dummies-1st-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
